Portuguese TV sucks

A couple of days ago I went to the four main Portuguese TV websites to see which movies would play during this weekend.

TVI was supposed to be playing Zero Effect, starting about five minutes ago...

Unfortunately, the movie they're now playing is Nick of Time.

And, according to teletext, they claim they're playing a completely different Portuguese TV show...

SIC, OTOH, a couple of days ago, claimed they'd be airing The Austronaut's Wife, starting at about 25 minutes ago...

Unfortunately, they're still not showing any movie, but their teletex claims they're show a completely different movie...

Wait, it's starting... yep, it's a different movie.

Plus, going to the TVI website, since it's past midnight, a regular user can only see tomorrow's schedule (yeah, you can tweek the URL, but it's a damned stupid website).

How do they hire these folks? :-\
